Stepping up its attack on the government over the NEET-UG exam issue, the Congress on Friday questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi's silence on the matter and demanded a Supreme Court-monitored forensic probe to safeguard the future of lakhs of young students.
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge accused the Modi government of attempting to cover up the NEET scam through Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and the National Testing Agency (NTA). Kharge cited arrests in Bihar and Gujarat related to the NEET paper leak, questioning the Modi government's claims of no leaks.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Jairam Ramesh also strongly criticized the government, highlighting the emotional toll on youth and demanding measures to curb corruption in examinations. Accusations of systemic rigging and paper leaks under BJP rule were intensified, with calls for urgent government action to protect aspirants' futures.
